The Christian Annual
For the Year of Our Lord
1906.
CONTAINING ILLUSTRATIONS,
INTERESTING MATTER, AND
VALUABLE STATISTICAL
INFORMATION, COMPILED EX-
PRESSLY FOR THIS ANNUAL.
Edited by Henry Crampton, Secretary C. P. A.
PUBLISHERS.
Christian Publishing Association,
J. N. Hess, Publishing Agent,
DAYTON, OHIO.
CMC CoNeReGATtoNAi. Lian^ei
14 Beacon STHt-T
I was not born in the Christian Church; never heard of it until I
was in my twentieth year. When I did hear of it, I began to investi-
gate its methods of work ; its aims and purposes ; and I soon reached
the point where I refused a proffered gift of |800 to help me through
school in preparation for the ministry from a popular denomination;
and cast my lot with the people of whom I am proud to-day. I cannot
express mj' feelings on paper, but as this 1906 Annual goes out on its
mission, I want it to carry this message from me to all the ministers
and churches belonging to us: First, that 1 have never been sorry for
a moment that I joined hands with the Christians; and second, that
I know of no people who have a better right to exist; who preach and
live a better gospel ; who enjoy more, or suffer more, than the people
who are content to be called Christians.
I have had my mountains of transfiguration and my valleys of humil-
iation in preparing this volume for its usefulness. I have been made
to feel something of the tremendous sacrifices made by many of our
churches and ministers ; I have been deeply touched b}^ the kind words
which have come in with the reports; I have learned to look at some
of my brethren from a diff'erent viewpoint, and a wider vision of our
possibilities and usefulness has been given.
I am quite sure of some things, among them are these: Good con-
ference clerks should be kept in office for life. Our general officers
should stop visiting our strong conferences and visit the weak ones —
if they cannot visit all.
Conference clerks ought to send to the editor of the Annual the
postoffice address of all ministers; but because it is just possible that
the clerks may fail to do so, though the ministers seem to think they
ought to, each minister should send his own.
As this bearer of tidings enters your home, try and see its virtues as
well as its faults ; and rest assured that no one desires it to be correct
more than the one who has done his best to make it so. It is not an
easy task, even when the reports are in. This one case will illustrate
many : One minister was reported by two conference clerks in three
dift'ereut ways; after trying hard to get that minister in shape, and fail-
ing, I finally wrote to him asking him how many of him there were,
and where they belonged !
Delays in getting the Annual out are hard to avoid; and we must
remember that one or two conferences are held in Decemher.
May we all be bound closer to one another, and to Him whose we are
and whom Ave serve, is the earnest prayer of The Editor.

BY REV. ELIZA L. BROWN.
Foiicard icc look in hope. The jjsalmist's harp.
The prophet's loftiest strains are ichen they hid
The fainting soul take courage. He who spoke
Among the hills and vales of Galilee
As never yet man sipake, and gave to hearts £
Distressed heneath the hardens they had home
Uplift siihlime. with higher, icider views
Of life and duty, waked not faith alone
In never dying truths, but hope and joy,
Unknou-n hefore to those who thronged his way.
^'The common people heard him, gladly f loved i
His words, ''Fear not," "7?e not afraid.'^ To-day ^
These words fall gently on the weary heart, *
And courage neio inspire. ^
The passing year t
Has showered blessings on. life's varied paths. T
Faith, hope and love have crowned' eao]i trusting soul. i
To many homes the summons came that called^ i
One forth to join the "choir invisible." And then, a
Though sorrow's fountain was unsealed, and sighs i
Escaped the mourner's lips, yet solemn joy T
Pervaded souls that upward looked in faith; — 4>
''The Father gave, and He hath taken away; |
E'en blessed he Jehovah's holy name." ||
For blessings manifold the past lias known, ^
For all the blessings ivhich the present gives, ^
For all the good the future holds in store, ^
Give heart-felt thanks. It is a Father kind, ^
And not a foe, tcho rules our destinies. a
^ May faith, hope, love yet more and more prevail. T
\ Bui love, the greatest of the holy three, a
^ Makes in our lives a grand, undying song. S
^ And on beyond, to realms of endless joy,
^ Out-going with each faithful, 2)assing soul,
% On earth, in heaven, dwells immortal love.

FINANCIAL.
The total receipts for the year for all pur-
poses was $21,505.13, being an increase over
the previous year of $2,366.77. There came
through the Woman's Home Board $880.41,
and through the Woman's Foreign Board
$2,351;.35. Both of the Woman's Boards made
a small increase over the previous year.
While cold figures — statistics — may indicate
something as to visible results, they can by
no means give the full meaning of the spirit-
ual results of missionary work. While the
I'eceipts were some larger the outlay for the
work was also larger, so the Board was com-
pelled to commence the present year, begin-
ning with October, with an almost empty
treasury, depending wholly on the blessings
of God, and the offerings of the people during
the year to carry the work through the year,
BUILDINGS.
In the line of material prosperity we may
mention the fact that a new Mission Home
was erected during the year at T.^tsunomiya,
Japan, at a cost of $300 for the ground.
which was donated by Mrs. Fry, and $2,000
for the building, which was furi'.i.shed from
this side of the water.
In the home field new nii?'>;on churches
were finished and dedicated at (.'oshocton
and Lima, Ohio, and at Montesano, Wash. ;
at New London, Wis., a good building pur-
chased for our mission church at Columbus,
Ohio, and the erection of church buildings
counuenced at Denbigh, N. D., Rifle, Colo.,
and at North Greensboro, N. C.
MISSION LITERATURE.
At the head of this agency stands The
Christian Missionary. As in every previous
year since the commencement of its p';iblica-
tion, there was some increase in its circu-
lation. It was given a new dress and in-
creased in size by a few pages. Of it there
were printed during the year l,741,i^)09 pages,
363,100 more pages than were printed the
previous year. This magazine, the official
missionary organ of the denomination, well
deserves a place in the homes of many more
of our people ; and many more homes, us
well as the cause of the Lord, would be help-
ed by the information and the inspiration
and the spiritual uplift which its reading
would impart. Fifty Cents a year puts it
within the easy reach of almost every one.
Of missionary Tracts and Leaflets there
were printed, by the mission department,
last year about 75,.500 copies, something more
than in the previous year.
PRESENT FORCE AND NEEOS.
We now have about sixty workers nearly
equally divided between Japan and Porto
Rico, and the United States. Those in Japan
and Porto Rico are depending nearly en-
tirely on the home treasury for their sup-
port, while those In the United States are
dependent only in part on mission funds, as
more or less is paid by the home congrega-
tion. But, as the needs are demanding, we
plead for more prayer, more interest, more
co-operation, and for more MONEY for all
lines of our missionary work, for workers
and -for buildings.
FOR THE YEAR 1906
13
Two collections are authorized to be taken
by all Christian churches durhig the year
for missions. One the second Sunday in
March for Foreign INIissions and one the
second Sunday in June for Home Missions.
To these collections all branches of the
church including the Sunday-school and the
C. E. Society are expected to contribute.
GENERAL MISSIONARY STATISTICS.
The American Board Almanac for 190G
gives the following sunnnary of the statistics
of the foreign missionary work done by the
Protestant churches of the United States
for the last year : Stations and Out-stations,
9,315 ; Missionaries — men 1,779, women 2,583
—4,363; Native Laborers, 22,982; Communi-
cants, 523,982; Added during the year, 31,-
715; Receipts for the work, $7,060,701. To-
tal for the United States. Canada, Great
Britain, Ireland and Continental Europe :
Stations and Out-.stations, 20,6-11 ; Mission-
aries, men and women, 11,157 ; Native La-
borers, 65,286; Communicants, 1,325,885;
Added during the year, 103,732; Receipts
for the work, $15,151,368.
The chief problem in the larger missionary
life of the church depends upon the vision
and faith and general attitude of the preach-
er. Given preachers wlio can see the unseen,
who are willing to undertake the seemingly
impossible, who have faith in God and in the
willingness of His church, men of large plans,
of tact and industry, men who believe that
the chief mission of the church is to hold
up Christ to the world that the sin-bitten
peoples thereof may look (believe) and be
saved, and — the task is half done.
* * * *
The church gives too little for missions
when she gives large money for her own con-
sumption. She has been spending upon her-
self the money vested in her as a guardian,
while the wards of her care have been per-
mitted to pine away and die for lack of the
only bread that can sustain life.
* * * *
If there is a jubilee in hell it is when a
minister of the gospel opposes or puts a
stumbling-block in the way of world-wide
conquest for Christ.

WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
This list of institutions and their presi-
dents represents unmeasured influences and
forces for educational evangelism. From this
source (for several reasons), the Convention
may reasonably expect greater things than
in the past. The material equipment is en-
larging. Defiance has dedicated a Ladies'
Dormitory. "Ti-owbridge Hall," representing
an expenditure of $18,000. Franklinton is
purchasing an eighty-two acre farm for in-
dustrial departments, some lines of which
■are at present followed. Union is raising a
$15,000 repair and improvement fund, and
Elon is building a $20,000 Ladies' Hall.
Starkey has enlarged her borders, annexed
a farm and buildings, and shown herself
alive to opportunities and good works. The
success of these forward lines for the year
are definitely assured. In addition, Palmer
plans the purchase of an adjoining farm, and
the Biblical Institute an increase of her en-
dowment, with some degree of promise for
success.
JNIore than two hundred students are doing
work above the high school grade — that is,
in standard college courses ; more than four
hundred in academic courses, and more than
a hundred in Biblical and theological
courses. In addition to these, many pursue
other courses, preparatory, special, profes-
sional or business. Forty-six teachers are
reported as giving their whole working time
to these institutions and students, and more
than twenty others render services of various
kinds and for varying seasons.
The endowment of a denominational chair
at Queen's College, Ontario, is still among
the things hoped for, though the money has
not been solicited. Some students from our
churches and of exceptional quality have
been drawn to the institution with most grat-
ifying results to themselves, to their friends,
and to the college. The plan of endowment
and centralization for college work in the
east at Queen's proves expedient with other
denominations and ,at other large institu-
tions. We only wait to assure ourselves that
it is in all respects practicable in this case.
If so, we shall have added at small outlay,
one of the best equipped and most thorough
schools to the list from which we may ex-
pect returns of efficient workers to our ripe
fields.
THE WORK OF THE BOARD.
It has not proved practicable to make loans
to ministerial students, or to grant appropri-
ations to different schools to be used for min-
isterial education, according to the discre-
tion of the faculties concerned. Neither have
we been able to seciu-e co-operation of the
schools, through their representatives, for
the establishment of college entrance re-
quirements and standards on which the va-
rious degrees shall be bestowed. Most of
the things specified by the Norfolk Conven-
tion as desirable for this department to
10
THE CHRIHTIAX AXXUAL
bring to pass, liaA-e so far been beyond reach.
The problems are changing somewhat and at
the coming Quadrennial meeting various vital
matters should be handled thoroughly.
SOME PROBLEMS.
That some of the educational problems may
be in mind and possibly find solution in ad-
vance of the next A. C. C. gathering, they
are named here. ,
1. The revision of the published course of
ministerial study, so as to make it the best
practicable and most adaptable.
2. Should the church schools be expected
to duplicate courses in the state schools of
their respective localities, to offer equivalents
of such courses, or rather to supplement such
courses, by providing for special needs?
3. To what extent should hope for cen-
tralization and industrialization among our
schools be entertained and encouraged?
4. How is a Divinity School, providing in-
struction for college men, to be realized?
5. Can an endowment held by the Conven-
tion for the benefit of its Educational work-
be created?
0. Since perhaps no man is acquainted
with all our schools, might they be better
advised and more efficiently aided by a secre-
tary employed by the Convention or the Edu-
cational Board, giving his time to the schools
and their interests, visiting each annually
and giving by lecture or otherwise, such
courses of instruction as all need but each
cannot provide for itself?
FINA>'CES.
The collections and disbursements for last
year were somewhat more than $2,000. With
the exception of small administrative ex-
penses this was appropriated among the va-
rious schools according to the basis set forth
in the last annual.
GENERAL.
The Secretary hopes that time and means
will permit the visitation of each of our in-
stitutions not previously visited during this
quadrennium, that our peculiar needs may
thereby be better understood, and a report
from the whole field be given not on general
principles, but according to particular and
specific facts.
The common desire for the best in educa-
tional work is manifest by the leaders of our
schools in attendance at great national or
sectional educational gatherings. According
to our faith it shall be unto us, and accord-
ing to our loyal devotion shall we render ac-
ceptable service. MariojST W. Baker.
Educational Secretary.

Sunday-School Department.
(Rev, Thomas S. Weeks, Secretary.)
Dear Sunday-School Workers : — We
greet you once again in the Ajinual message.
We wish you a Happy New Year, happy in
service, and best of all, happy in the realiza-
tion of success. We bespeak for all of you
the joy of harvest. -
May we come to the end of the year bring-
ing sheaves. But as "God giveth the in-
crease," we must plant and water, believing
that "they that sow in tears shall reap hi
joy."
Has progress marked the year that has
passed? This is a question to be answered
by each and all : by the individual worker,
by the school, by the conference, and by the
denomination.
First. By the individual. Have you been
a faithful student of the word? Have you
made progress into truth? Have you taken
advantage of the multitude of helps and
helpers which are available for Sunda.v-
school workers^ in this age?
Do you know the truth you teach better
than one year ago?
Are the lambs of your little flock nearer
the fold of ^the Chief Shepherd than one
J' ear ago?
Second. Is your school progressive?
Have you tried any of the modern methods
in Sunday-school work? Did you give them
a fair trial? Have you a graded school?
Have you a Normal Class? Have you a
FOR THE YEAR. J 906
Home Department? Have you a Cradle
Roll? Have you been represented in the
town, district, county, or state Convention?
Did you lind an ideal and an inspiratio)!
there, or did you come home discouraged t)e-
cause you could not reach the ideal at once
and without strenuous effort?
Have you observed any of the special an-
niversary days in your school? Children's
Day? Rally Day? Decision Day? Gradu-
ation Day? Try these. Does your school
teach The Great Commission as the sum and
substance of Christian duty? What is your
school doing toward world-wide evangeliza-
tion? How many consecrations have been
openly acknowledged during the year? Upon
the Christian education gainod in your
school depends very largely what each con-
secration means for the liingdom of God.
Third. Is your Conference progressive?
Has it a Sunday-school Department? Has
it a Sunday-school Secretary? Is he alive?
Do you have a Sundaj^-school Institute? Do
you give the Sunday-school work a large
place on your Conference program? Do you
send statistics to the Conference Secretary?
Some of you do not. He says so.
Fourth. Denominationally, we have made
some progress during the year: Our Sun-
day-school Editors have done good work. Our
lesson helps and our Sunday-school papers
were never better than now, and the Quarter-

observed the change? Perhaps you have not

patronage will warrant further improve-
ment.
We are gathering Sunday-school statis-
tics, and they are bringing us some, surprises,
some glad and some sad.
The coming Convention should give us a
new impulse for Sunday-school work. We
expect to have an up-to-date program for
the Sunday-school Department. We expect
to ask the Convention for some things, and
we hope to get them.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^v^^w^^^^^^^^^
In choosing a school, we nat-
urally take into account various
qualities ; and no single institu-
tion may properly lay claim to a
monopoly of educational excel-
lence. Institutions, however, like .
persons, have individual charac-
teristics, a history peculiarly their
own.
U. C. College has behind it a
record of more than forty years.
The school is no longer an ex-
periment. Hundreds of her rep-
resentatives are now filling hon-
orable and lucrative positions of
service in almost every calling in
life. Merit wins in the end, and
the college has studiously tried
in all her history to deserve a
fair share of patronage. Speak-
ing of the management, I desire
to thank the many donors and
earnest workers whose co-oper-
ation during the past two years
particularly, has made the out-
look bright by opening a large
field of expansion and, we trust,
of efficiency. The greatest pres-
ent need is more students.
We confidently affirm that the
cost of sound instruction and liv-
ing at Merom is much lower than
in the larger towns and more
wealthy institutions. We aim to
give the poor boy or girl a chance
for the best things in college life
and discipline.
The religious life of our young
people should be wisely and nat-
urally directed. Man is a moral
as well as a physical and intel-
lectual being, and the institution
that fails to provide food for the
spiritual life is failing in the
most vital element of sound train-
ing. Mere ethics, as a philosophy,
is not enough ; we need to touch
the inner springs of the religious
life: imparting, by example, the Christian motive. This is the one safeguard — -the true ideal — of
education. This "element belongs to every great school, whether the students are few or many.
The Christian College is the best place in this world to prepare for a well rounded life, and
hence a true success.
In the opinion of able educators Union Christian College is favoraoly located. The town is
quiet, healthful, moral. A residence community surrounded by excellent farms ; an abundance
and extensive variety of fruit; and, although about two miles from Mero;n Station, on the Illinois
Central Railroad, has good gravel roads and telephone and telegraph priviletjes. No licensed
saloons nor gambling dens. Athletic grounds and a wholesome spirit of recreation give zest to
outdoor exercise.
The churches and Christian Associations maintain regular reli:jious services. The Literary
Societies afford excellent practice in oratory and debate. The Lecture Association, composed of
the faculty, students and citizens, provides" for the ablest speakers and entertainers to be had
through the lecture bureaus.
The school trains teachers, lawyers, doctors and farmers as well n^; preachers. There is no
cast or creed to hinder a full and free pursuit of study in any line of honorable scholarship. \
full correspondence course is offered to all who cannot attend the College in person.
The larger "uraber of students thus far, have become teachers. Many have taken up courses
leadins to the practice of law and medicine. Some have prepared for business, some for farming,
and still others for the distinctly literary professions — like journalism.

THE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
Publication Department.
The Herald of Gospel Liberty.
This journal is the property of the Christ-
ian Publishing Association, and is publish-
ed at Dayton, Ohio, at $1.50 a year. The
Christian Publishing Association includes in
its membership all the members of the
American Christian Convention, which is
the general representative body of the
Christians. Hence, the Christian brethren
at large control the Herald of Gospel Liber-
ty; by their delegates electing the editor
every four years, and also the trustees of the
corporation. These trustees are nine in
number, and if a vacancy occurs in the edi-
torship the trustees have the right to fill it.
They have even the right to remove the
editor (by a two thirds vote of the full
board) "for cause." The business of the
paper is managed by the trustees through
.the publishing agent whom they themselves
elect. The editor's term of office begins
on .January 1st. J. J. Summerbell was first
elected by the "Quadrennial" at Haverhill,
Massachusetts, in October, 1894, and began
his service on January 1st, 1895. He was
re-elected at Newruarket, Ontario, in 1898,
and at Norfolk, Virginia, in 1902.
The Herald of Gospel Liberty is the only
newspaper published by the Christians whose
editorial control is determined by the whole
brotherhood. It is and has steadily been
the purpose of our people to make it fully
representative for all geographical sections,
even though some sections have newspapers
devoted to the local needs. For instance.
Prof. J. N. Dales, A. M., is the editor of the
Christian Vanguard, devoted to the needs of
Ontario ; yet he is a trustee of the Christian
Publishing Association, and serves regular-
ly. E. L. Goodwin, Esq., is closely connect-
ed with the Christian Messenger, devoted
especially to the interests of New Englana ;
but serves regularly on the board of the C.
P. A. Rev. W. W. Staley, D.D., is closely
sympathetic with the Christian Sun, devoted
to the interests of the south ; but serves reg-
ularly on the board of the C. P. A. There
has never been any attempt to interfere with
the rights of these brethren as managers of
the Herald, on the ground that their pre-
judices might be supposed to be connected
with other journals. And this broad spirit
of fraternity has found full sympathy in the
editorial management of the Herald, which
has ever been ready to assist in advancing
the enterprises of all sections, without a
shadow of prejudice.
The paper at the present time is prosper-
ous, and commands the attention of the press
of other denominations. Its words are quot-
ed frequently, sometimes with credit, and
sometimes without.
IMuch of the space of the Herald of Gospel
Liberty is used regularly in the lurtherance
of the interests carried on by the general
church ; and this space is lost for ordinary
atti'activeuess to the general reader, and that
feature militates against increase of sub-
scription list outside of our own denomina-
tion ; but the paper is the best vehicle for
bringing these intei'ests to the knowledge
of our brethren, both as to promptness and
general distribution ; and this fact makes it
necessary to continue the polity : for our
laymen cannot know these things well other-
wise, because the allusions of the pastors
to them must necessarily be infrequent and
brief, and chiefly when general offerings are
asked for. The Herald of Gospel Liberty is
needed by the pastor for his own knowledge
of church news and progress ; and he neeus
it in his church that his people may con-
stantly be informed in matters which he can-
not take the time nor energy to biiug before
them. The families that take the paper are
incomparably more likely to be good sup-
porters of the pastor and faithful to the
church than those families which neglect it.
The publishing agent, to whom all business
letters should be addressed, is J. N. Hess,
Dayton, Ohio.
Among the editors of the Herald of Gos-
pel Liberty and Gospel Herald, which disap-
peared into the former, have been such men
as I. N. Walter, J. P. Watson, John Ellis,
H. Y. Rush, James Williamson, A. W. Coan,
D. P. Pike, N. Summerbell, C. J. Jones,
Ellas Smith and other great writers, whose
FOR THE YEAR 1906

names we do not now take time to recall.
Almost all of tbem have been gloriously
faitiifiil to the great trust in their hands.

The Christian Sun.
The Christian Sun was born in a log
cabin in Orange Countj-, North Carolina.
January, 1844. Its foster father was Elder
D. W. Kerr, who, besides being an editor was
a school teacher and preacher. It was first
issued as a monthly, in magazine form.
The first issue of the paper is now in The
Christian Sun office and contains a list of
its first subscribers. Nor is it without signifi-
cance that many of the same name, appearing
on that first subscription list, are on the
subscription list to-day. Indeed an elderly
brother told us recently that his father sent
him, when quite a lad, to the postoffice for
the first issue of The Christian Sun, "and
it has been coming into our home, first to
father's, then to mine, ever since."
From its incipiency until now the paper
has enjoyed the confidence, esteem and for
the most part, the willing support of the con-
.stitueucy it has endeavored to serve.
Succeeding Elder Kerr, Rev. H. B. Hayes
was editor for a term of years. He was
succeeded by Rev. W. B. Wellons, who mov-
ed the place of publication from Raleigh,
N. C, to Suffolk, Va. It is doubtful if there
has lived a man in the Southern Christian
Convention who did more for all interests
and enterprises of the church than did Dr.
Wellons. Under his management The Sun
increased its subscription list and was put
on a secure foundation. From his day to this
the paper has enjoyed a sure, safe and steady
growth.
The succeeding editors were J. T. Whitney,
Rev. J. P. Barrett, Rev. M. T. Walker, Rev.
AV. G. Clements, and Prof. E. L. Moffitt.
The paper is now the property of the
Southern Christian Convention, In fact as
well as in name, that body having made the
purchase in May, 1904,. and elected as editor
and manager, J. O. Atkinson. It is now an
eight-page, five-column paper, issued every
Wednesday from the press at Elon College,
N. C, and has a circulation of 3,000 copies
weekly. The people of the Southern Chris-
tian Convention believe In The Christian
Sun, and their loyalty to the cause and love
for the paper have made it what it is to-
day— a good religious and family weekly,
devoted to the cause of Christianity and ded-
icated to the service of the kingdom under
the direction of the Christians. "In essen-
tials, unity ; in non-essentials, liberty ; in all
things charity" is the ,motto that the man-
agement of The Christian Sun has ever tried
to adhere to. J. O. Atkinson.
Elon College, N. C.
The Christian Messenger.
The mission of the Christian Messenger is
to help on the cause of Christ. It aims to
do this by devoting its energies especially to
the Interests of the Christian churches in
New England. The members of these
churches, together with their pastors, feel
the need of a paper devoted to their own
local interests, which shall give the news
from the various fields and also help and
inspire in the several departments of their
work, and at the same time breathe the
true spirit of the Kingdom of Heaven in its
larger sense. It advocates the principles of
the Christians and Christian fellowship as
broad as the spirit of Jesus.
It has an editorial board of five members,
all of whose work is gratituous, and it is
owned and controlled by the New England
Missionary Society. Its work is that of a
denominational religious weekly devoted to
the welfare of the church universal.
It is all but impossible to forecast its pros-
pects beyond the present year. Its problems
at present are financial ones. It is sustained
by the incomes from subscriptures, Sunday-
school supplies, and gifts, the amount of
which is not equal to its needs.
As a religious publication, it has done
good, it is now doing good, and we hope for
its continued life and usefulness.

This is a Canadian periodical published
22
TEE CHRISTIAN ANNUAL
every alternate week by the conference of
the Christian church in Ontario. It is al-
ready reaching up to the stature of manhood,
for the front page bears the assuring prom-
ise of Volume XV. Its influence and patron-
age has grown slowly but steadily since its
first number was issued.
In Canada we are in the swing of pros-
perity financially. In the midst of aggres-
sive development of every external kind we
must look well to our spiritual growth. The
Vanfjuard appeals to the head as well as to
the heart, and it champions tne cause of
the Christians because the New Protestant-
ism for which the Christian movement
stands, means more open-eyed, as well as
bigger-hearted Christianity.
It stands for Christian union and opposes
sect aggrandizement. It believes firmly that
the message of the Christians will yet be
heard to the ends of the earth. The union
of the denominations is not at hand. Creeds
and names divide Christ's followers by great,
fixed gulfs. The real issue is not the union
merely of a few sects. The stewardship with
which the Christians have been divinely
invested, will only be completely fulfilled,
when at the name of Jesus every knee shall
bow, and own him Master and Lord of all.

The Cliristian Missionary.
AUTHORITY AND ORIGIN.
The American Christian Convention held
at Marion, Ind., in October, 1890, adopted
the following:
"We recommend that the Secretary of Missions
be authorized and instructed to edit and publish
a paper to be devoted to the interests of mission
work."
At the New England Convention held in
June, 1893, the following was adopted:
"Whkeeas, We deeply deplore the lack of mis-
sionary interest among our people, therefore.
Resolved, That we look anxiously fo.rward to
the time when a monthly paper of this descrip-
tion shall be published."
And at the annual meeting of the same
convention, held in June, 1894, the follow-
ing was adopted :
Resolved. That in the opinion of this society,
the time has come when there should be under-
taken the publication of a Missionary Magazine,
devoted to the work of missions in the depart-
ment of home and foreign. *** That we request
the General Board of Missions, with the co-oper-
ation of the Woman's Board of Home Missions
and the Woman's Board for Foreign Missions, to
undertake this work at« the earliest practical
moment."
The matter of commencing the publication
of such a magazine, as had been authorized
by the General Convention, was by the Mis-
sion Secretary brought to the attention of
the Mission Board at every meeting of the
Board during the quadr^nnium following
1890. But no action was taken until July,
1894, when the Board authorized the pub-
lication of one number, as an experiment.
THE FIRST NUMBER.
was issued bearing date. October, 1894. The
same month of the issuance of the first num-
ber, at Haverhill, October, 1894, the Gen-
eral Convention endorsed it, and the Mission
Board authorized its continuance. At the
following Convention, at Newmarket, Octo-
ber, 1898, it was adopted as "The Oflicial
Missionary Organ of the Denomination." Its
monthly publication has continued until the
present time. It is now in its twelfth vol-
ume.
The first number contained sixteen pages,
and no number has contained less. In 1902
it was enlarged to twenty-eight pages, with
cover pages added. The size has since been
increased to thirty-six pages, including cover
pages. Special numbers have had additional
pages, running as high as eighty-four pages.
The price, which was fixed at fifty cents
a year, has never been increased, though
the magazine has been enlarged and improv-
ed from time to time.
THE NAME.
The name of the magazine — TJie Christian
Missionary — very well indicates its charac-
ter. It aims to help to an earnest, conse-
crated, deeply spiritual, and consequently
useful Christian life ; and in spirit and
teaching it is missionary in its fullest
and broadest sense. From its first
issue to the present date the magazine has
not published a single word against any
phase of true missionary work, any where,
from "Jerusalem" (one's own home), "to
the uttermost part of the earth." (Acts
1:8). It has been a potent factor in creat-
ing what growth has been made in the home
and foreign missionary sentiment and work
FOR THE YEAR 1906
23
of the Christians during the past twelve
years.
From the coinmen cement it has been edit-
ed and published by the Mission Secretary
except for two years, from October 1902-04,
it was published by another. The Presidents
of the Woman's Home and Woman's Foreign
Boards, and the C. E. Secretary of the Ameri-
can Christian Convention have been corre-
sponding associate editors of their respec-
tive departments.
CIRCULATION.
In the increase of its patronage and con-
sequent usefulness it has had a steady
growth from its commencement. Diu'ing the
last year — year closing October 1st, there
wei'e printed 41,850 copies, a total of 1,741,-
000 pages, 3G3.100 more than the year before.
In its nature and adaptation it is in no sense
local, but belongs equally to our people — of
the Christian church — wherever they reside.
Its subscribers are found in thirty-three
states, two territories. Canada, Germany,
Brazil, Porto Rico, and Japan. It may be
found in the reading rooms of our colleges,
and in some of the public libraries of our
country. It goes as an exchange to the editor-
ial tables of the larger number of the mis-
sionary periodicals of this country, as well
as to some in Europe and the Orient. As
our representative in these missionary cen-
ters, it guarantees a knowledge of our mis-
sionary work and its record in the history
of the age.
To take and read The Christian Mission-
ary is to learn in particular of the home and
foreign missionary work of the Christians,
as can be learned from no other or from all
other sources ; and, in general, to keep in
touch with the grandest and divinest enter-
prises of the ages.
J. G. Bishop. Mission Secretary.
of the Sunday-school Department of the
Southern Christian Convention, the Worker
not only owes its birth, but its life as well ;
for Brother Butler carried all the respon-
sibilities and duties as editor and publisher
for the first year. By the end of the first
year he had the great satisfaction of seeing
it on a self-supporting basis, and the pros-
pects are so bright now, that, with a few-
changes, it should find a field of usefulness
in the entire religious body of the Christians,
as it is the only publication of its kind pub-
lished by our people. In fact, it has already
been suggested l)y some of its northern
friends, that it ought to have a general Chris-
tian Endeavor Department, and some connec-
tion with the Christian Publishing Asso-
ciation. This would mean a larger field of
usefulness for the paper, and more help for
all our young people.
The Worker's motto is, "Better organiza-
tion ; more efficient service ; greater loyalty
to the work ; deeper spiritual life."
Some of the best writers among us have
contributed to its columns, and the press has
given it veiry complimenary notices.
Rev. Murdock M. Butler, Henderson, N.
C, is editor-in-chief, and Rev. Edward
French. Raleigh, N. C, is business manager.
Then there is a normal training department,
edited by Rev. Edward French ; a Home De-
partment, edited by Mrs. M. W. Butler, and
a Primary Department, edited by Mrs. S. M.
Smith. All these departments mean much to
the readers of the paper.
This quiet little Worker has already quick-
ened the life of the Sunday-schools of our
Southern churches, and is destined to bring
about better organization, better study and
more intense spirituality. It is only 35c per
year, and is published monthly.

A Friendly Tribute to Elder Elijah
Williamson.
Elijah, son of Francis and Elizabeth Wil-
liamson, was born in Hartford County, North
Carolina, May 2, 1804. In early life he re-
ceived a good English education. In 1820,
at the age of sixteen, he made a public pro-
fession of Christianity by uniting with the
Bethel Christian Church in Hertford County.
North Carolina. The same day on which he
united with the church he was baptized by
Elder Joseph Thomas (White Pilgrim). He
began to preach in 1821, and sinners wept as
they listened to the boy preacher. He was
ordained in 1822. IMoved to Darke County,
Ohio, in 1833. He inherited slaves, but was
opposed to slavery, and brought his slaves
to Ohio and set them free. He felt that
God called him to preach the gospel, and
after settling in Ohio, as before, he was con-
stantly about his "Father's business," preach-
ing the gospel, and soon organized a church
in Greenville, the county seat of Darke
County. Other churches around Greenville
he organized. He preached in Ohio twenty-
three years, living continuously on the farm
where he first settled. In 1856 he moved to
Iowa, and settled in Van Buren County. He
moved to Sandusky, Lee County, in 1859,
where he remained till the day of his death.
He served the Sanduslvy church faithfully
for twenty-seven years. He died July 25,
1887, aged 83 years, 2 months and 23 days.

Note. — Uncle Elijah Williamson settled in
Darke County, Ohio, within one-half mile of
where I was born and raised. I saw him
clear, off the house spot where his first cabin
was built. His children were my most in-
timate neighbor companions. I was well ac-
quainted with his manumitted slaves. From
a child I heard him preach for twenty years.
He received me into the Christian church
and baptized me. I saw his first wife die.
Called of God to preach the gospel, Uncle
Elijah urged, encouraged, and helped me un-
til I was fairly in the work. I heard much
more preaching from him than from aiiy
other one man.

FOR THE YEAR 1906 20
s ;
Christian Biblical Institute
STANFOKDVILLE, N. Y.
This is the Theological School and Ministerial Training School of the
religious body known as "Christians," instituted under the action of the
American Christian Convention taken in 1866.
.THE PRIMARY DESIGN
of the founders of the school was to aid in prel^aration for their own ministry;
but it is open to all well accredited Christians who desire to prepare for
the ministry or other gospel work, without regard to sex, age, or denomina-
tional preferences. Its desire is to help build up the kingdom of Christ in
any way it can best be done.
Its theological "standard" is the Bible. Hence the object of the school
is primarily and chiefly the study of the Bible, especially the New Testament,
believing that from this source the preacher draws his best preparations
for his work. Its courses of study are arranged with reference to this.
By the accession of Prof. S. G. Palmer to the corps of teachers, the Insti-
tute is enabled to do broader and more thorough work in lines especially
adapted to the purpose for which the school is established, without adding
to the students' expenses.
By the item below it will be seen that the Institute has no income
whatsoever from the students, either from tuition or rent of rooms. It is
entirely dependent upon the benevolence of friends for funds outside the
income from its insufficient endowment. It appeals to the friends in the de-
nomination and any others for funds to enable it to maintain its present
standard, and to enlarge the scope of its work.
TME EXPENSES
of the school are light. It aims to bring its privileges within the reach of
all by oflfering its tuition and the use of its very pleasant, furnished rooms
free of charge, and by bringing board and other expenses to the lowest figure
consistent with wise economy. The buildings are pleasant and pleasantly
located. The students' rooms are cheerful, well lighted, and warmed by a
hot-water system. The entire expense of a school year, including heat and
books, need not be above $85 or $100. .
For further information send for catalogue, or address the president,
REV. J. B. WESTON, D. D.,
Stanfordville, New York.

DEFIANCE COLLEGE
This aminal anuonncoiuent for IDOG is seut forth willi f^ratitiule for what has 2
ah-eady been ac-eoiiiplished, and with great hopefuhioss Un- the iinniediate future J
of the college. The college now offers a wider scope of opportunity than ever be- *
fore in its history. The success of the first three years under the new Board of %
Control has been most gratifying in every respect. With a competent faculty %
and the industry of the students the school has established a reputation for ^
scholarship. The enrolhneut for the past year shows a decided increase. ^
The library has been doubled, sevei-al hundred dollars' worth of equipment %
added to the laboratory, and a large amount of money has been expended on ^
the grounds, athletic field and tennis courts. An eighteen thousand dollar dor- <
mitory is under construction. The courses of study have been revised, and pro- %
visions made whereby students remaining in college for the summer terms can ^
compl«?te any one of the standard college courses in three years. S
Perfection and progress are the watchwords in all departments. The patron- ^
age of old students, friends and the public in general is earnestly solicited. ^
BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS. I
The College building is situated in North Defiance, on the east side of Clin- 5
ton Street. It is a beautiful Queen Anne brick structure, and is situated in the
midst of a large campus of more than twenty-five acres, which is covered with
fine large trees of nature's own planting. The building is a model of beauty and
convenience, its heating and ventilating are of the most approved kind, and it Is
sui)plied with good fire escapes. Recitation rooms are large and commodious.
TROWBRIDGE HALL.
A well-built, commodious and spacious Girl's Home. This building
was made possible by the generosity of Lyman Trowbridge, one of De-
fiance's wealthy and most highly respected citizens. By legitimate methods he
has accumulated a fortune, which he is now using to bless humanity. The
building has been planned after a careful study of similar buildings elsewhere,
and will not be surpassed by any in comfort, taste, and convenience. Some rooms
are intended for single occupants, others for two. Each room has a large closet,
and is lighted, warmed and furnished. The hall contains thirty rooms and will
accommodate about forty persons. On the first floor is a large dining hall,
designated for both young men and women, that will accommodate about one
hundred and fifty.

The home mission work of the convention, as
shown by the report of the president of the Chris-
tian Missionary Association at the last meeting
of the Southern Couvention, is in successful oper-
ation. The Association, in addition to aiding
special points, maintains two general missionariefs
in its bounds. As regards foreizn missions, it is
believed there is a . steady growth of interest. A
special call was made upon the conference for
missions at the late session of the Convention.

ciation are : Rev. J. O. Atkinson, L>. D., I'resident,

day after tlie first Sunday in December, 1005.

Colleges, made at ISere.i Churcu, Nansemon.l Co.,
\a., sliows the indebtedness of FAou College to be
entirely liquidated and tiie endowment increased
to $30,000. That' the churclies composing the Con-
vention pay a fixed sum annually of .til,8<>0 for
lOion College, Thus the college is" freed from em-
barrassment as to its future progress. At the re-
cent commencement it was decided to buiid a new

eiiuipuients. This building is novv in i)rocess of

Esij.. who have chosen a location near Elon Col-

90 THE CHFISTIAN ANNUAL
I Starkey Seminary
1 LAKEMONT, NEW YORK
Owing to the generosity of the late Hon. Francis A. Palmer,
of New York, the school has possession of a magnificent new
building, equipped with modern appliances for convenience
and comfort. Eleven teachers, specialists in their several
departments, compose the Board of Instruction, and the stu-
dents are prepared for any college, trained for business or take
finishing courses in art, elocution and vocal and instrumental
music. The health record of the school is above the average,
and its distance from all demoralizing influence tends to pro-
mote moral and intellectual health. Special watch-care is
taken of the girls, who are under the supervision of five lady
teachers. Terms are very moderate, while the table is kept up
to the standard of schools that charge twice or thrice the
Starkey rate.
For catalogue or information, address the president.

The college is dependent on its friends for financial support. If it
could be suitably equipped for its work, and placed on a firm basis, its
usefulness would be increased many fold. A few friends of the institu-
tion have remembered it in their bequests, and it is hoped that many
others will.
Those who have money to leave, or what would be better, to give now,
would do a lasting and immeasurable good, by contributing generously
to Franklinton Christian College.

Dare to be a Daniel!
Dare to be true; dare to stand for the Christian Principles, and
use the Christian Sunday-school literature. This may not be very
correct from a literary point of view, but it is imperative, and most
emphatically correct from the practical and perpetuating standpoint
of the Christian church and the Christian Publishing Association.
Loyalty North and South
By the loyalty of one layman in Canada and the ministerial co-
operation, every Christian Sunday-school in Canada takes and uses the
Sunday-school literature published by the Christian Publishing As-
sociation of Dayton, Ohio. By the loyalty of the editor of the Chris-
tian Sun, and the ministerial co-operation of the south, the Christian
Sunday-school literature published by the Christian Publishing Asso-
ciation of Dayton, Ohio, is used in every Christian Sunday-school,
of which we have' any knowledge, in the Southland.
Other Literature
By the disloyalty and infidelity of some of our laymen and minis-
ters elsewhere, some of the Sunday-schools in Christian churches
have been induced to use Sunday-school literature NOT PUBLISHED
by the Christian Publishing Association, and some of our churches
have been lost to us, as you notice by a recent item in the Herald
of Gospel Liberty, that the Cliristian church property at Randolph,
Vt., has just been deeded to a sectarian body. This is not the only
church that the Christians have lost in this way in recent years. By
small beginnings of disloyalty, unfaithfulness and infidelity to the
Christian principles our Sunday-schools and churches are led into
sectarianism and are lost to the Christian principles. Will our
laymen and ministers
Dare to be Daniels
and be true and stand for the Christian principles and see that the
Sunday-school literature published by the Christian Publishing Asso-
ciation of Dayton, Ohio, is used in their Sunday-schools, and that
tlie Herald of Gospel Liberty is read by their members. The Christian
Publishing Association is the property of the Christian church, and
is not run for personal or individual profit, but for the cause and
the building up of the Christian church.
